Martz rumors unnerved Rams; coach appreciates team's support.
Byline: Jim Thomas
ST. LOUIS _ Mike Martz was getting ready to board the team bus Saturday afternoon for the drive to Lambert Airport and the flight to Arizona when he got a call from ESPN's Chris Mortensen.
"He wanted to know if there was any chance that I wouldn't be here next year," Martz said.
As in fired or resigned. Martz said no, he didn't plan on resigning and didn't think he was about to be fired.
"If it were true, then you deal with it, that's fine," Martz said. "But when it's not true, it's just maddening and aggravating."
